My heart absolutely hurts for all the friends, family, and acquaintances of Mr. Bruce! Mr. Bruce was always one of those people who lit up the room when he came in (and made our dogs go nuts!). I have such wonderful memories growing up with the Falgoust family. Whether camping, cooking, parties, or fire department events, Mr. Bruce was always such fun! There were always the quintessential short jokes between him and dad,, and tons of laughs. I'm sending so many hugs to Mrs. Pam and Kacee in the loss of such an amazing person. The earth lost a good one, but heaven gained a great one!

Bruce you were one of a kind. You always spoke the truth and would lend a hand to anyone in need. Thank you for the lessons that you taught me growing up in the Fire Department. You accomplished much in your short time here and your memory will live on. My prayers are with Ms. Pam and Kacee.
